The garden features a mix of mature shrubs with a more informal meadow-feel to the South. There are beautiful vistas of Burford and beyond from under the dappled shade of a series of well-established trees including fir, poplar and mature fruit trees. This could also provide an ideal location for a further garden room. The peaceful oasis is divided by laurel planting, creating privacy and seclusion. This includes screening of two garden sheds (one with power), wood store and oil tank.
